Distribution of Med Uni Graz affiliated publications by field-normalized Journal Impact Factor (JIFnorm)

Med Uni Graz publications¹ were assigned quintiles according to the normalized² Clarivate’s Journal Impact Factor of the journal at the time of publication.

Proportional Distribution: The color-coded columns show the distribution by JIFnorm-quintiles, while the left vertical axis indicates the proportion relative to the total articles published in a given year. The red line shows the total number of articles published each year (right vertical axis).

Example 1: Around 40% of the over 500 articles with Med Uni Graz affiliation published in 2019 had a normalized JIF > 0.8 (QU1).
Example 2: The proportion of articles published in journals with a normalized JIF < 0.4 (QU4 and QU5) has remained under 20% since 2010.

Absolute Impact: The sum of the normalized JIFs for all published articles in a given year, color-coded according to the respective quintile.

¹ This analysis considered only publications categorized as full papers/original articles.

² IFnorm = (number of journals in WoS category - ranking of journal + 1) / number of journals in JCR SCIE/SSCI category. An IFnorm of 0.8 means that 20% of the journals in this subject category have a higher IF than the respective journal. The highest possible IFnorm is 1, which means that this journal currently has the highest IF in this subject category.
